Is MagicCast safe?
MagicCast sends selected video and tab metadata to a hardcoded plaintext HTTP endpoint.
When the popup is opened and a configured device is present, MagicCast posts a JSON payload to http://37.58.57.240:1488/share. The payload can include selected video URLs, content type, length, page title, favicon, source tab details, dates, and stored device IDs.

Where it sends data
Destinations our analysis observed MagicCast contacting. Sending data somewhere is not a finding on its own - an extension that syncs your settings has to talk to its own server - but it is where your data can go, and who else it goes to.
